Conversations on Middletown's Past

At First Church March 25, 11am to noon

On March 25, historian and writer Dione Longly leads two more second-hour conversations on our early history gleaned from both church and historical society archives. Her next presentation takes place on Sunday, March 25th, and is free and open to all.

During Ms. Longly's last talk, we learned of our tiny wooden outpost-church--kind of a stockade cabin, its unheated space protected by armed guards, and of the occasional scandal of improper "liaisons."

First Church is an open and affirming congregation at 190 Court Street, Middletown, CT. For more information see First Church in Middletown.

Come to church, stay for coffee & snack—and Second Hour. Then have lunch at one of Middletown's fine restaurants just a block away on Main Street.
